My name is Ben Jessell and I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate (MFT-C) who loves working with individuals, couples, and families. Both professionally and personally, I aim to embody a philosophy that affirms diverse experience and expression, while being intentional in the way we treat ourselves and those we hold dear. I believe that seeking a balance between vulnerability and safety with ourselves and our relationships can inspire meaningful and lasting change while also providing us with confidence in experiencing the continuous growth life requires from us all. 

I have experience working with a wide range of clients from different backgrounds, populations, and identities at the individual, couple, and family level. I take special interest in working with couples from the neurodivergent and queer populations, as well as those who are experiencing issues related to sex and sexual health, sexuality, and gender identity.
